1.0 out of 5 stars rip off - not ripples should be the title, August 17, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Ripples (Paperback)
I have read all of Patricia Scanlan's books to date and have enjoyed all of them EXCEPT for Ripples. It was a complete waste of my money and l feel cheated. I read the whole book in less than 45 minutes and got absolutely zero satisfaction! I've given it a 'one star' only because there wasn't a 'no star' facility. Sorry Patricia, but you get three boo's from me for that piece of rubbish.

3.0 out of 5 stars open door series, June 20, 2005
This review is from: Ripples (Paperback)
these short stories are for improving your reading skills and therefore not intended for people who read a lot,I think the open door series is a great idea.
